I want to bring the Po-Biz full-swing into the world as we now know it - the world of Twitter and 24/7 texting and of MySpace and Facebook.

- Dear Mary,
Thank you for reading "Sower's Promise". Please feel free to send me your impressions at mdoallas@aol.com. I find reader feedback so very helpful.
I will look forward to learning more about your recommendation of Hoa Nguyen and her and her husband's journal. Her name is not familiar to me, and I'm sure I'll enjoy her poetry.

Nice to "meet" you. 4 Golden Retrievers! Talk about having your hands full. Wow! An awesome breed - one of my favorites. Hubby and I would love to have a dog but I don't think we could keep up. Besides we have one beautiful, temperamental cat -- along with the 3 kids. :-))
